Paleoseminar

The Paleoseminar is an initiative of MARUM Early Career Researchers. It provides an opportunity to present on-going research for discussion and feedback in a relaxed atmosphere.
Anyone who is working on paleo time scales (Holocene to Pre-Cambrian), or associated proxy or model development, is welcome to join.

The ob­jec­tive of the se­mi­nar is  to pro­vi­de an op­por­tu­ni­ty for sci­en­ti­fic ex­ch­an­ge and net­wor­king especially, but not excluded to, postgraduate students and Postdocs.
We usual­ly have 1 or 2 spea­kers. Each pre­sen­ta­ti­on is fol­lo­wed by ques­ti­ons and feed­back.

Per­haps you are pre­pa­ring for a con­fe­rence and would like to get feed­back on your talk?
May­be the­re’s a re­cent­ly pu­blis­hed pa­per that might ap­peal to the broa­der group and you would like to lead a dis­cus­sion on it?

The Paleoseminar provides a good opportunity to get constructive feedback from your peers. You can use it, for ex­amp­le, to pre­pa­re for con­fe­rence pre­sen­ta­ti­ons.

Col­le­agues vi­sit­ing MARUM (guest sci­en­tists) are very wel­co­me to join and give pre­sen­ta­ti­ons in this group!
